-Story Starts-
Today was a day like any other in the Forever Fall Forest. The leaves were, as always, falling there red reminding those who saw them of fresh blood, the sky a bright blue and wholly contrasting the setting of the forest that promised to bring you into the warm and caring embrace of death, for the creatures that roam this forest are not your average wolf or bear, no they are the beasts of Grimm. These terrifying beasts could rip even the most hefty of beings apart in mere seconds. But this is not what we focus on today, for flying overhead was a grey Dust-plane known as a Bullhead, on the side was a red wolf's head with a claw mark behind it. The Bullhead was trailing smoke as if it had been shot and it was losing altitude fast.
The pilot looked nervous as she tried to keep the Bullhead from crashing outright. One of the other White Fang members was treating their injured comrade, while the other was keeping a close eye on their captive. She gritted her teeth as her fox ears twitched wildly. The make shift nurse spoke up, tusks sticking out from his lower lips.
"I hope you know how to land this thing, because otherwise, we can kiss everything we've worked for goodbye!" he sounded quite agitated and that did not help the fox's attitude. " I am trying you damned pig, keep him stable and keep your mouth shut!." she tried to keep the ship steady as a little white haired girl whimpered quietly in the back of the Bullhead causing another of the White fang to growl at the girl and yell at her. "Shut up you stupid human trash!" The man was a gorilla faunus and as he raised his hand to strike the small child, the ship took a sudden nose dive.
"Oh HELL!" She shouted as the Bullhead began to drop like a rock. "HANG ON!" She tried to reign in the controls but she had no luck. The injured faunus flew forward along with the others. The little white haired girl braced for impact as the Bullhead crashed into the forest floor. The pilot was unconscious, somehow surviving. The heavily injured faunus, however, was not so lucky. The boar and gorrilla faunus also survived, but had a few injures. As the other two recovered from the crash the gorilla grabbed the pilot and punched the door off its already busted hinges, stepping out he called to the boar, "Get the bitch, we are going to execute her now for the lives lost." he snarled as he gently set the fox down next to the bullhead in a sitting position. The Boar had walked over to the child and grabbed her by the hair, dragging the poor screaming girl out of the bullhead.
Jaune Arc, a name that the people of the towns outside the walls of Vale knew well, the tales of his heroics had spread far and wide, and most thought him a mere myth. For what could be true of an Arc of all people fighting in a way not like the knights of old tales, it was absurd and the family was not known to have given birth to a male in the past few years. They were blessed with a son not long ago, and he was making quite the name for himself. Sadly, the Arc family was not proud of their only son, for he did not follow in the footsteps for the Arc men before him. But that is enough on the young mans' history, for now we Focus on the present.
As he was walking thru the ForeverFall, Jaune Arc was contemplating whether he wanted to go fishing or head to a town for food when the sound of a damaged Bullhead resounded in the air. He looked skyward and saw the bullhead suddenly go into a nosedive not to far from his location, he started to run in the direction, channeling aura to his legs he took off like a rocket, but as he came upon the crash site he saw a man dragging what looked to be a child by her hair out of the crash and then throw her in front of himself and the other man, and as he got a better look at them, he recognized the white fang uniform. He hung back for a moment, unsure what to do. Then the boar man pulled out what looked like a long blade, while his comrade kept the girl from running. He felt his blood boil and readied his weapon and his signature battle cry.
Winter was scared to death, as the man with the long tusks came at her with the knife. She let out a scream when all of a sudden, a glorious war cry rang out and a young man came front flipping out of no where and over the two mens head's, the warcry sounding something like "Ayiyiiyiyiyiyi!" The boar looked up in time to get a boot to the face and the gorilla let go out of shock. Winter crawled away quickly and watched the fight unfold before her. "So, picking on children now are we?" the man says smiling the whole while and spinning his sword in his grip. Winter examined the man before her. He had short blond hair, and playful yet stern blue eyes. She could tell he was outside quite a bit, unlike her. His white armor seemed to shine against the backdrop of red, the gold designs jumping out more. There was a crest branded into the right pauldron and some sort of jewelry on his other bicep. A sheath made of the same material and design rested on his back. He wore blue pants and a half skirt, while also sporting white and gold boots. He had a white and gold vambrace on his left arm.
"Please, be careful." She whispered. Jaune smiled and winked at her as he screamed a bit, throwing the two off guard as he lunged at the Gorilla then spun and backhanded him in the temple with his blades hilt. The boar faunus ran up to jaune to get a surprise attack in but jaune just backflipped over the man while sheathing his sword and then, as the man turned, he struck out hitting two points on the mans neck that caused the man to fall to his knees "I just cut off the blood flow to your brain, you have thirty seconds to live unless you tell me why you were about to kill a child." his face was away from the girl as he didn't want her seeing this violence so early in life.
"It's a need to know thing. And you don't need to know." The boar man growled out thru the pain. jaune leaned down to the man's ear and whispered menacingly, "Then you do not need to live." he turned and walked over to winter as the man passed out then died, he knelt down smiling at her "You're alright now kid." he rustled her hair playfully. "So whats your name so i can get ya home?"
She puffed up her chest, taking a note out of her sister's book. "My name is Winter Schnee, of the Schnee family…" Her brave face broke a bit. "And I wanna go home!" Jaune smiled at Winter's antics and stood up. "Alright Miss Schnee, then lets return you home. there is a town not far from here where we can make a call to your family, so are you ready to go home?" he smiles. She nodded and wiped away a few stray tears. "Its a long walk, so would you like to walk or me to carry you Miss. Schnee?" he asks Winter. She blushed and crossed her arms.
"I can walk, thank you. A Schnee does not need to be carried." Jaune nodded, "Then let us be on our way." he made sure that she was alright and started to walk north. Winter quickly followed after him, although it was a little bit hard since he took big steps. Once she caught up to him, she spoke up.
"What's your name? I have to let my family know who saved me after all." Jaune frowned "Most just call me Jaune little Winter, though if you'd like, you can call me what my sisters do." he smiled remembering the days before his father had kicked him out. She tilted her head in thought, then nodded.
"Jaune it is then. So, Jaune, why were you out here in the forest? It doesn't feel very safe here." She kept close to him. "I travel a lot, don't really have a home anymore." is all he said on that "And this forest is dangerous, its the home to some very powerful Grimm, but i have slain the ones near this area, i just left the town we are going to actually." Winter nodded and watched the leaves fall from their trees. As they came up to the town, jaune remembered something important and stopped Winter. "I need you to pull up your hood and then i'm going to give you a piggy back ride, okay?" he says, his eyes serious. Winter looked confused but did so anyway. She didn't want to argue with the man who just saved her life.
As Jaune let Winter onto his back he smiled "This town is a Faunus village, most are nice, but a few may react badly to the youngest Schnee." he says walking thru the village to a uplink peeked out from under her hood, but made sure it didn't fall from her head. She watched all the faunus people roam about: shopping, chatting, normal things. It reminded her of Atlus. As they walked into the station Jaune waved at the attendant and gave her a sign of 4 fingers, she smiled as they walked over and he sat winter down at terminal 4. "Go ahead and make your call little winter, ill watch out for ya till they get here." She nodded, and without removing the hood, placed her call. She kicked her legs back and forth, waiting for the call to connect. A woman picked up finally, and before she could begin with the usual opening statement, she saw who it was.
"Please connect me to mother. Tell her Winter is calling." The woman hurriedly did so, and in a few moments an older looking version of Weiss was on the screen and looked horribly worried "WINTER! are you alright, what's going on, do they want ransom, are you hurt?" the woman kept going a mile a minute. Winter held up her hand, careful not to make the hood fall.
"I'm safe. I was saved by a very interesting young man." She looked at Jaune. "Where are we again?"
"Town called calliope, about 40 miles south of Vale." he says, the woman only hearing his voice "How did you get there Winter?" she asks, calmed down a bit from her earlier worry.
"The plane we were flying in was hit, than after a crash landing….I was saved. My captures were knocked out cold and Jaune found me and brought me here." Jaune nodded off to the side "We will have someone there right away honey, and i would like to meet this jaune personally and reward him." jaune grimaced over to the side, He knew that Miss Schnee would know he was an Arc, and he'd rather not start trouble for his sisters and mother, his father sure, but them. Never. Winter noticed this but kept talking, "Make sure that none of the Schnee colors are flying when you come get me. It's not safe to do that here. And Jaune said not to worry about a reward." She glanced at him quickly. The woman nodded "Alright dear, they are en route and will be there in 4 minutes at most. be safe, but i still wish to meet him." there was a twinkle in her eyes. She nodded and hung up the call. She turned and looked at Juane.
"I get the feeling that you don't want to meet my mother. I understand that feeling, but I don't think there is a way out of it. Unless you skip town as soon as they get here." Jaune nodded,
"True, and i have a meeting with a man in vale, so i have to get going anyway." he says and pulls out a piece of paper and writes something down on it handing it to Winter "If you ever need me or just want to talk, call that number alright." he smiled at her as he heard a bullhead overhead and grabbed her and started walking out. She clung to the paper and followed after him, grateful for his help and courage. As the Bullhead landed Winter boarded and Janue gave her a wave as he walked back to the call waved back and hid the scrap of paper in her dress. Her mother gathered Winter into her arms and held her close and tight. Winter fought for air, but that didn't stop her from thinking of Jaune and his bravery. I want to be that brave, one day. One day, I'll be strong and brave, just like Jaune. The Bullhead flew back home, making the Schnee family whole once more.
